Abstract

A plurality of flexible and detachable bands in the center of the accessory are used to hold various hair accessories. There is at least one top loop in connection with the pillow that allows for attaching the apparatus to a door knob or the like in order to hang the device from a door. Bottom loops are of dissimilar length so as to allow for holding larger hair bands on the large strand and barrettes and smaller bands on the shorter strand.
